MSattler 387 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I still have one family member who uses Emby for Live TV. It works fine from an Apple TV, but via the Samsung TV, once you select LiveTV you cannot select channels or move through the menu. Setup is 2 x HDHomerun HD Prime's For what it's worth, I have no programming guide since it's not a necessity, so the family member typically goes to channels, and picks the channel they want to live. Still works fine in Android, and Apple TV, but Samsung it does not let me choose channels, I can only back out. Server version 3.5.2 Samsung TV - latest version Thanks!

Sirbyteme 8 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I have this same problem on my Samsung UN46H5203 and another 32" of the same era. I am pretty sure It was working on 2.2.3 Server version 3.5.2 Samsung TV - 2.2.4 I really miss my Live TV! Any chance of getting this fixed soon? Thanks Luke.

Sirbyteme 8 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Yes, I do have guide data from WMC. I can go to Live TV and then Guide and see data but I can't select anything. I press OK on anything and nothing happens. Sorry for just being a dumb engineer and not an awesome theoretical physicist like you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Ok so then that's not quite the same thing as was originally reported. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5049 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 @Sirbyteme these are two different apps altother and a different OS from the OP. You are using the old community app v2.2.4 which is no longer in development and the developer is no longer available. Unless this issue is server related I would recommend using the official app instead and trying that. Version 119 should be available to you in the store since you appear to live in the US and have a 2014. Then if the issue persists Luke should be able to assist better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirbyteme 8 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Frostbyte, the description the OP gave sounded very similar... sorry for the confusion. Plus, I posted the wrong model! The UN46H5203 I posted by mistake is my daughter's (at her house). I have 2 Samsungs UN32EH5300 UN40EH5300 These E models are my issue... both are running 2.2.4 and have no Live TV as of either 2.2.4 or server version 3.5.2 (I think). It was working like a month or two ago. There is no emby app in the Samsung store on those "E" TV's as I think you know. Live TV works fine on my PC/Browsers and Roku and Android. And my guide data from WMC works on everything including the Samsungs. On the E models, I go to Live TV, I see the guide data but when I click a show, nothing happens at all. In comparison, on my other devices when I click a show I get another screen that display additional details about that show and a green "Play" button which I click and the show starts. I understand that 2.2.4 is no longer being developed but this was working not long ago. Is there a way to go back to 2.2.3 to test or anything else you can suggest? Both Samsungs have their latest firmware. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5049 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 If you don't mind setting up IIS, or some other web server on your PC, you can get the older zip files from GitHub and then host it internally https://github.com/MediaBrowser/SamsungSmartTV/releases Install instructions are in a pinned post below and just replace the zip with the one from the link above https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/51345-how-to-host-the-samsung-app-from-your-own-web-server/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37060 Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Ok as soon as you get the updated version there will be a new option in user settings to configure the live tv landing screen. You can set this option to the Channels tab since you do not have any epg data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottieboi 8 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I have the same issue, I added a link for live tv, no worries it works fine on the pc/laptop/phone /tablet and on my android systems, a little slow, but otherwise working as expected, however when I attempt the same on my main TV, Samsung UE65NU7500, all I get is the main screen, nothing in programs and unable to navigate t the other option, guide/channels Works perfectly fine on all other systems. I tried the uninstall and reinstall just to be sure there wasn't an update I was unaware of, no joy though still the same.Emby version 1.0.62Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, the latest version of the app should allow you to customize your landing screen for live tv so that it goes directly to the Channels tab.

Scottieboi 8 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) Thanks Luke but I didn't see that option, I just carried out a fresh install looking for that option.I will try again, maybe I just missed it, all I got was the connect screen..Just a quick update, I did eventually take the blinkers off and locate that option. Works perfectly now.Many thanks Luke. Edited October 22, 2019 by Scottieboi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
